Why Middle School Kids Shouldn’t Have Lockers
By: Peter V
Having lockers in middle school can sometimes be a real nuisance. I'm going to tell you why I feel like middle school students should not be allowed to lockers.
To begin, I think that not having lockers in middle school will help reduce bullying levels in many middle schools. Not having lockers will help reduce bullying levels because, having no lockers keeps kids on track and ready to go to class and so therefore, the bully has not so good of a chance to hurt kids feelings. But, if middle school students did have lockers, the bully would know were to find you exactly during passing period. Also, another reason why I think that middle school students should have no lockers is because you also have a better chance of not getting picked on. For example, if some "funny" kid likes to put miscellaneous items in each other's locker. When you open the locker, you see your locker filled with garbage and everyone around you is laughing. But on the outside you’re laughing at yourself too but on to inside, you feel as if you heart had just exploded in tears and as if you want to run away from everyone and hide. I feel like if you don’t have lockers, that injurious things like this would never happen.
Another reason why I think that having no lockers in middle school would help is because you have a lower percentage of tardys. For example if your almost running late for school and then, when you get to your locker and if you forgot the combination or if a bully overheard what your locker combination was and decided to switch the lockers out then, you have no way of getting to the materials that you need to have a successful day at school. But if you have a binder instead of a locker, you wouldn’t need to fret about being late to class because you have everything that you need in your binder and then you can go on down to class.
A final debate why I think that middle school students should not have lockers is because you don’t have to deal with the worst part. Clicks forming. Having clicks form can really hurt other kids. They can hurt you verbally, physically, or they can even gossip about you and spread rumors around the whole school like bees around a pot of honey. I feel like without lockers, clicks have not so good of a chance to form and you don’t get your feelings hurt. It also keeps the victim from feeling like he's un-cool or that he feels like he's getting left out of a conversation.
I feel like with no lockers in middle school all of this horrific stuff will come to an end and kids will have a good time at school since there not getting picked on 24/7. I hope that middle schools will never get lockers.
